WELCOME!
Happy New Year, and welcome to our first Atelier Newsletter for 2009! We hope you had a happy holiday season filled with fun, family, and music.
2008 was an exciting and memorable year at Roland with the launch of the all new “Next Generation” AT-800, AT-900, and AT-900C. The customer response to these fantastic new instruments was beyond our wildest dreams! (We’re finally getting caught up on production) It was also the first year of our “Atelier Organ Fest”, which you can read about in this issue. In otherwise challenging times, it’s great to know that the Atelier, Club Roland, the Atelier Organ Fest, and making music bring so much joy to so many of our good friends.
Rest assured 2009 will be chocked full with Roland events! Be sure to ask your local dealer about workshops and concerts on the Atelier “Next Generation” and other fine instruments. Don’t miss an opportunity to enjoy the music of our incomparable group of artists, and learn from their vast knowledge. We want to make sure you are able to take full advantage of all the wonderful features on your Atelier.
Lastly, be sure to visit www.rolandatelier.com regularly. You can read up on the Atelier artists, shop for their newest CDs and disks, pick up some new “Tips and Tricks”, possibly see your picture in the “Events” area, or even do some research on that new Atelier you’ve been wanting.
